Could use automated HCL Checker in Skyline Advisor

So far the things I get is just 'upgrade because you are not on latest version' kind of advisory or a L1TerminalFault patch missing. Sure it's great to have a reminder now and then and great to see a list of the bugs they correct but what I really miss for this to be a "Great Tool' is HCL Host Checker.

Like incorporate something similar to the ESXi Compability Checker Fling into this

https://labs.vmware.com/flings/esxi-compatibility-checker

so we can see if there is any needed driver/firmware-updates because of bugs or if we are running on an unsupported driver/firmware/hardware.

Also list what version of supported ESXi-versions the Hosts can upgrade to.

This is way more valuable to me than the current information coming out of Skyline and saves us much more time.

Any chance this is/will be on the list to implement or is it out of scope for this product?
